Heard so many Americans say "If you aren't making at least 75k a year, you are a failure".
To me, that's an absurd amount of money. That's about 54 000 SEK a month, which extremely few people here in Sweden are earning (average salary is about 2549 dollars a month). Even most jobs you need a uni degree for aren't giving you much money, because of the way our tax system works. Unless you are a lawyer, doctor or higher-up IT specialist, or own your own company, you aren't really looking at much more than about 3161-4215 dollars a month.
Is it really that easy to make the big cash in the U.S compared to other countries?
